Oh those? Just some things I hit with Dryad Allure then leashed. (For the interested, that's an Arctic Ogre Lord, an Ogre Lord, an Ettin, a Troll, an Orc Bomber, and an Orc Brute. I had an Orc Mage but he was squishy and I was lazy.)
Apparently that's a problem. Which, okay, sure, I don't imagine anyone planned for DA'd pets to be kept forever despite the fact that, unless they die, are released, or the server reboots, you can keep them forever.
All the same... who really effin' cares?
Is it really that big of a deal that I have an Orc Brute locked down in my house? I mean, what's it gonna do? Break the shard balance? No, wait, Mirrors and Evos already did that. I'm actually 99% sure my mage-geared Mirror could no-heal kill an Orc Brute anyway. They might need to use as much as a store bought weapon to do it, but that counts.
So as it stands, I haven't heard anything else about these pets other than the fact that Staff is going to look into them, it's a bug but don't dispose of them, and they may or may not get wiped out. This makes me feel very uncertain about whether or not I should use DA at all. It is pretty much useless considering the things you can tame with it, but it's also kinda fun to play with. I was hoping to grab a Meer Eternal for my collection, but that's clearly out now.
Somewhat related to this, I haven't heard in-game or seen anything posted about mirror images side effect buff since the upgrade. Once upon a time, they got a percent of your base stats and that was it. Now? Apparently +stats on jewelry and clothes are a go. This is on top of getting your skills, full resists from your gear up to 95% max, and getting a portion of whatever item mods you have.
So it's perfectly okay that we have 2 control slot using summons that are just shy of being equally as powerful as our characters are, but owning a nigh useless 3-slot Orc Brute is too much. Meh.
Some days, Paradise, you show your disdain for player creativity.

lawls. Wish I'd done it to an Orc Brute or something instead. *That* might've been worth 3 control slots.
